This summer vacation in H City is relatively muggy, but most of the time it is cooler.
After the college entrance examination, there has been no shortage of rain.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, the typhoon passed through, and the rain brought slightly reduced the heat in H City.
Everything looked the same as in previous years.
But along the upper reaches of the Yangtze River Basin, there has been particularly heavy rainfall this year, and it keeps falling.
After the weather cleared up, the water level in the mountain streams rose a lot, which was just right for rafting.
Faced with such a good business opportunity, how could the bosses not seize the opportunity?
Rafting business suddenly blossomed everywhere.
In City H, Cheng Chu was originally inspecting the property with the elders in the company, but he received a call from his friend telling him that he had arrived in City H.
"It's just a coincidence that you came here.
It happened to be a typhoon passing through.
It's very cool outside."
In the noodle shop, two handsome young men made many people reluctant to move.
Gu Jingzhou smiled and said, "I have been busy for so long after being dragged here by the old man.
I finally have a few days to come here and relax."
Cheng Chu knew why his old friend came to H City to relax, and he wouldn't point it out.
Although the TV stations in City H are not as popular as Mango Channel, the local ratings in City H are still quite high.
On this day, the employees of the TV station went to work as usual, and everyone was busy doing their part.
Suddenly, a rapid ringing of the phone broke the busy scene.
“Looks like there’s news again” The operator smiled and picked up the phone, "Hello, this is it."
Before he finished speaking, the person over there had interrupted him hastily, "A huge flash flood broke out in Xiangshan City, Kuai Da News S Province.
Currently, the water level along the Anjiang River has skyrocketed, and all the towns along the river have been flooded.
There are countless casualties."
The H City TV station was not the first to get this news, but it was the first TV station to stop all programs to report the news.
At the noodle shop, Gu Jingzhou was asking Cheng Chu: "Why don't you see Yue Lin?"
"She and Chen Hua went to play.
Don't worry, every place she goes, she will tell us the hotel where she will stay and the license plate of the car she will take.
Calculate the time.
We should arrive in Xiangshan City by now.
They were still there a few days ago He said he was going to go rafting and should be back in about a week."
After Cheng Chu finished speaking, he heard a serious boy coming from the TV hanging on the wall of the store: "Emergency news: A huge flash flood broke out in Xiangshan City, S Province.
The flood washed down from the upper reaches of the Anjiang River.
All along the river.
Flooded.
Citizens who have relatives at home in Xiangshan City are asked to contact them immediately.
If you are planning to go to Xiangshan City, please postpone the date.
The government rescue team has rushed to Xiangshan City for emergency rescue."
Cheng Chu was stunned and subconsciously wanted to call Xu Yuelin.
But he saw that Gu Jingzhou had already called on the opposite side.
"Turn off the phone."
Gu Jingzhou's expression changed and he dialed another number.
On the other hand, Xiang Xiangchu said: "Now see if you can still afford the ticket to Xiangshan City."
Cheng Chu hurriedly called to ask, but was told that heavy rain had hit Xiangshan City again and all flights to Xiangshan had been cancelled.
"All flights are cancelled."
Gu Jingzhou nodded and the phone in his hand was connected.

"Uncle Zhao, what's the situation at Xiangshan?"
"It's very bad.
It is estimated that the entire Xiangshan City cannot be saved."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Jingzhou's heart suddenly dropped.
"Uncle Zhao is from the National Security Bureau.
He said that Xiangshan City may not be saved."
Cheng Chu was shocked.
“So serious”
The Ministry of National Security naturally knows what it is.
While all the outside media are still chasing rumors, the Ministry of National Security may have grasped the entire actual situation.
But now even people from the Ministry of National Security are saying this "Such a big accident will definitely mobilize the army to Xiangshan.
Just be prepared and I will take you with me."
After Gu Jingzhou finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the noodle shop quickly.
The streets outside are still very lively, and people coming and going are living happy and stable lives.
At this time, in another place, someone's body was freezing in the water.
"Don't let go, never let go."
Xu Yuelin held the tree with one hand and held Chen Hua tightly with the other.
Their skin became pale and swollen because they had been soaked in water for too long.
Looking up, the original ravines between the green mountains have been filled in by floods, turning into a vast expanse of water, with only occasional trees emerging from the water.
Although "Yue Lin" did not have a sense of security under her feet, and she was likely to die next, she felt very at ease with this person beside her who was always holding her.
"Don't worry, I will hold you tightly." of."
She was not afraid of death, but she knew that if she was washed away by the water like those people just now, Yue Lin would also be very scared.
The fear of a person fighting alone is much greater than that of two people.
"Yue Lin, look there's something there," Chen Hua suddenly shouted, "Grab that thing, maybe we can be saved."
Xu Yuelin followed Chen Hua's line of sight and saw that there was indeed a wooden barrel floating towards them not far from them.
The barrel was probably used by farmers to store grain.
It was more than one meter high and seemed to have a sufficient diameter.
If the two of them grabbed this barrel, their survival rate would indeed be higher than if they had stayed here.
"Okay Huahua, get ready.
When the barrel comes, I will hold you while you try to hook it."
"Okay, then you hold my waist first while I take off my clothes," Chen Hua said.
"Ah" Xu Yuelin was stunned.
It's summer now and everyone is wearing cool clothes.
If you take them off, wouldn't it mean that you've run away?
"It's so wet from the water.
There's no difference between wearing it and not wearing it."
Chen Hua said as he took off his top.
"Just treat it like I'm wearing a swimsuit.
There are metal buckles on it.
It’s heavier, so it’s easier to hook that thing.”
"Then you hold my waist, and I'll take it off too, so we can have the same effect."
Finally, the clothes of the two people were tied in the middle with a knot, equivalent to a rope of more than one meter, which was washed by the water and dragged behind the two people.
"The barrel is here, hurry up" Xu Yuelin grabbed the tree with one hand and Chen Hua's ankle with the other, and the two of them stretched as far as possible to the side.
When the barrel flowed down the water, Chen Hua shook the clothes in his hands hard.
"Wow!"

The metal buckle at the top of the clothes was thrown into the barrel.
With a hook, the barrel slowly floated towards them.
"Come here."
Both of them were a little excited and pulled slowly.
When the barrel appeared in front of their eyes, they found two children lying inside.
The children were not beaten when they were young, the older one looked like four or five years old, and the younger one was even younger.
Both of them have fallen asleep.
There are still tears on his face.
"Oh my God.
There's someone" "Here, use the branches to hold the barrel."
This saves the two people effort.
After doing this, Xu Yuelin reached out and touched the bodies of the two children.
Wen couldn't help but feel happy: "They are still alive."
Two people here often see people being washed away by the water, and some people are still struggling.
But some people have become corpses.
Sometimes they would watch helplessly as corpses that had been soaked and turned white floated past in front of them, their eyes widening in horror.
"Yue Lin.
Look, there is food inside."
Chen Hua said happily.
Xu Yuelin took a look and saw a lot of sliced steamed buns placed under the child's body.
She knew that the custom in some places during the Dragon Boat Festival is to wrap rice dumplings and make steamed buns.
Zongzi are generally eaten quickly, but steamed buns are made more often and then cut into pieces.
Dried in the sun, it becomes a snack for the children at home for the next half year.
It is impossible for two children to find the barrel so smartly by themselves.
Also put food in it.
Then it can only be the parents of small children.
Now the children are alive and well in front of them, and their parents don't know where they are.
"Let's eat some," Xu Yuelin said, "but since eating someone else's food is equivalent to receiving someone else's favor, we must protect these two children."
The two of them had been in the water for a day and were already very hungry.
And there is no telling when such a huge flood will recede.
The two children can survive longer if they have more food.
Now that they are sharing other people's food, they have accepted their life-saving grace.
"Um."
In the river water, the two of them ate three pieces of dry steamed buns each, and wrapped the rest in the plastic bags inside and put them aside.
Maybe because they were a little prepared, the two of them felt a little better.
Chen Hua even poked Xu Yuelin's breasts as a joke, "Tell me, did you secretly eat papaya behind my back?"
"This girl is naturally beautiful."
After saying this, she glanced at someone's breasts and said, "Hello, little steamed bun." "" After resting for a while, Xu Yuelin said: "Huahua, if there is a rope or something floating on it later, remember to pick it up.
We will tie the barrel to this tree so we don't have to worry about it floating away when we sleep at night. " But when we waited until night, there was no rope floating down the upper reaches, and instead we waited for a heavy rain.
"Draw, wake up."
In order to keep their spirits up, the two of them take turns to rest.
If one rests, the other will take care of the barrel and the child.
"What's wrong?"
Facing such an environment, Chen Hua quickly woke up.
As a result, when I woke up, I was hit by the overwhelming rain and couldn't open my eyes.

"Yue Lin, is it raining heavily?"
"Yes."
Xu Yuelin couldn't help but feel a hint of despair in her heart.
If it rains heavily, the water level will rise.
Now, they had been clinging to the branches of the trees below to prevent themselves from being washed away by the flood.
If the water level rose again and the trees were submerged, they would be unable to rely on the trees and would have no choice but to be washed away by the flood.
The two children in the barrel were still crying, but water had begun to accumulate inside.
In just a short while, half a bucket of water was filled.
"Don't cry, don't cry," Xu Yuelin comforted while giving the steamed bun slices to the younger children, "Take this, don't put it in the water to play with, okay?"
Then she said to the older one, "Let's pour the water out with our hands."
There was no protection from the rain at this time, and I was worried about putting the two children in the water.
They might be washed away accidentally.
After much deliberation, I could only keep removing the falling water to reduce the weight of the barrel.
The rain has been falling, and the two people have put their clothes on it to reduce the rain from entering.
But even so, you still have to manually fill the water.
"Huahua, the water level has risen again."
Xu Yuelin suddenly said in the darkness.
"I feel it."
They used to hold the tree with one hand and their heads could stick out of the water, but now their heads are often submerged in the water.
"Huahua, the tree below may not be able to bear it anymore."
Xu Yuelin's voice remained calm.
Inexplicably, Chen Hua felt panicked for no reason, "What do you want to do?"
Then, she felt Xu Yuelin's hand reaching her waist.
Xu Yuelin hugged her, looked at her and said: "My dear, the resistance of the two of us plus the barrel is relatively large.
If there is another wave of erosion, the tree will probably break, and we will have no choice but to float away." ” "But you don't weigh much by yourself."
Chen Hua shook his head, but his tears couldn't stop falling.
All this time, because you are here, I feel at ease.
As long as I know that you are by my side, I can have the courage to face anything, even death, it doesn't matter.
"Listen to me.
There are children in the barrel.
If it drags two more people, it will sink immediately.
If it drags one person, it is still barely possible.
If you are washed away later, if you can find a place to stop, It’s best.
It’s been a day and a night, and the national rescue team is probably rescuing people now.
You must remember to shout loudly if you see a helicopter flying over.”
"What about you?
Why are you going?"
Chen Hua held the barrel tightly with one hand and held her hand tightly with the other, "No, I can't let you go."
"Be sensible, I won't die.
Believe me."
Xu Yuelin reached out and touched her head, "I won't die."
But you are not sure.
In the original text, you are a person who has never appeared, and your destiny is not determined.
It is possible to live well, or to die young.
I'll bet that there may be a glimmer of hope, but you may definitely die.

Opening her hand apart finger by finger, Xu Yuelin kissed her cheek, "We will meet again."
As soon as his hands were loosened, his body quickly drifted backwards with the current.
Seeing that she let go, Chen Hua yelled and tried to catch her.
However, at some point, a rope was tied to his waist and he could not swim forward.
He could only watch Xu Yuelin floating further and further.
Far.
"Yue Lin" Chen Hua shouted, tears bursting out.
Seeing a friend facing death and being unable to do anything about it is a despairing feeling.
You said you could see you again, when did it happen?
Did you wave to me and smile intact, or did I burst into tears looking at your body?
Xu Yuelin stretched her hand out of the water and waved forward.
The cries of the people in front became farther and farther away, and finally a wave of water came over, and everything disappeared as the world spun around.
